I will never give in to Miss Death

Xiongxiong only stayed in the coffee shop for less than an hour before leaving and had a bowl of the shop's baked chicken and sandworm porridge.

"Before you leave, let's take a group photo while Nuo'er is not busy now."

Fortunately, before Xiongxiong left, he took a lot of photos with us at the request of "Physics Duck".

"Come here, Nori maid... Oh no, our group leader is standing in front, right under this picture of No Game No Life... Hubby's painting. This magic circle is really cool."

"I think Noelle is just like Hubie or Shiro, a silly little loli."

"Who are you calling stupid?"

"Hahaha... the little girl is furious. I'm just kidding. Come on, stand still. It's one dollar per photo, right? Ten dollars for me!"

The "magic circle" that had just been set up last night in the middle of the first floor of the coffee shop seemed to be a very good spot for taking photos. When a few of us stood on it, we felt like chosen children preparing to go to another world.

The only thing that makes me a little dissatisfied is that I am the shortest among the group.

Needless to say about those two boys, Yin Xiamo is taller than me, Xiongxiong is taller than me, Tongtong is taller than me, even Maple who has always been a soft girl in the group is taller than me...

And she is not a little bit taller. I feel like their daughter Yui in "Sword Art Online" when I stand in front of Kirito who is dressed in kirito clothes.

"And this Nuo'er's... girlfriend? Your name is Xia Mo, right? Come here quickly."

"Maid-sama, come over here and help take a picture!"

"Wait, I'm not standing yet... I want to be here, at the edge of this five-star line... OK!"

"Crack!"

This photo made me realize what it means to be treated like a real child.

It seems as if time has gone back to more than ten or twenty years ago, when I was still a child in the welfare home. In every group photo, I stood at the front because I was too short, and my height was almost the same as the director who was sitting on a stool in the first row.

I don't know what's going on at the welfare home now...

"Let's go over there and take some more pictures, shall we? Since this is a cat cafe and we have maids, we have to take some pictures of the cats, right?"

After we finished taking photos in the lobby on the first floor, Maple suggested taking two photos in the cat living area, so a few of us went to the cat living area in a grand manner.

"How about Noer, why don't you try to carry a rabbit on your head like Chino in the anime? There are no rabbits here, so we can use cats instead."

"That's not possible, right? The cats here are so big, I heard they weigh more than 20 kilograms."

"Just find a smaller cat. Look at that calico cat, it's pretty good."

"Okay, that's it. Come on, Xiongxiong, you stand in the front this time...Haha, Nuoer's fan group, first offline gathering, group photo!"

"Could there be a second time..."

Finally, our group of people went outside the coffee shop and completed the final photo shoot with the huge mushroom house and the commercial street under construction behind it as the background.

"I'll be leaving now, everyone have fun!"

"Bon voyage, big boss!"

"Boss Bear, you're going to go out like this in a bear suit?"

"Yes! You can trust Kuma completely! Hehe, Kamihama City is such a beautiful city, of course I have to have fun for a few days!"

"Um... Xiongxiong, on behalf of the store manager... thank you for the coconut."

"Haha, it's okay, it's just a piece of cake. My boat is coming here anyway, so by the way! I wish you and Xia Mo happiness!"

After taking the photos, Xiong Xiong paid the bill for Tongtong, Bingling and Duck before leaving. He rushed out of the coffee shop as if he was in a hurry to go somewhere to play, got into a quirky car that arrived outside the coffee shop at some point, and left.

Although her expression was very cool, it was just that... because she was wearing a bear suit, looking at the bear's back, I always felt that it was a little funny.

Of course, this may also be the life that the "upper class" likes - anyway, their family is rich, they have a special car to pick them up, or they are the only daughter in the family, so they can do whatever they want, so they must wear the clothes they like when they go out.

The reason why Xiong Xiong likes the anime "Xiong Xiong Bravely Enters Another World" is probably because the setting of the heroine in the anime is a bit similar to her.

They all have noble status, mysterious backgrounds, and endless money. Now that their studies are over, they can play however they want.

Let alone her, if I had heard when I had just graduated from college that I was actually a child who was stolen from a wealthy family, and that my biological parents had assets worth hundreds of billions and that I would never have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of my life, after reuniting with my parents, I would probably have given up my job and traveled around the world every day, doing what I wanted to do and going where I wanted to go.

Kamihama City is also a tourist city. It is close to the sea and has a lot of scenic spots such as the Blue Sea and Silver Beach, the Old Man and Hainan Nagi Tower, the Pearl Plaza, Kamihama Lake, and the Daito Forest Park in Daito District. Suppose Xiongxiong saw the promotional video of the coffee shop on the Internet, or saw everyone’s discussion about the coffee shop in my reader group, and then randomly searched for rumors about Kamihama City and found out... Hey, it seems to be a big tourist city where you can go for fun, so he came.

Going to the coffee house to attend an offline readers' gathering and meet me, the author, was probably just a coincidence. Maybe what she really wanted to go to were the various tourist attractions in Kamihama City.

Then I thought that I couldn't come to Shangjing Coffee House empty-handed, and I didn't know what to give me as an author. When I saw the promotional video, the outside of the coffee house looked quite desolate, so I got it. I might as well give me a few coconut trees.

The main thing is that these coconut trees are not particularly small ones, but have grown into big trees that weigh several tons.

Coconut is a species that bears fruit all year round. We dig the soil with an excavator, plant the coconuts, and if they survive, we will probably be able to pick fresh coconuts by this time next year.

Sometimes I really can't understand the thoughts of these rich people.

The super big coconut trees were imported. It must have cost a lot of money to dig them up, and then transport them here. Even if they had their own ship, it would have cost a lot of money to ship them by sea. In addition, they rented excavators and transport vehicles, and sent so many workers to help dig holes, plant trees, and install supports. From my personal understanding, it would have cost at least hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Of course, maybe this money is nothing to Xiongxiong, but I am very grateful to her for spending so much money to help plant coconut trees outside the coffee shop.

Xiong Xiong did not tell his real name, nor did he say which country he was from. When Bing Ling and the others asked him about his hometown, he just said vaguely, "I come from a country very far away from here, by the sea."

There are many "coastal countries" in the world, so what Xiong Xiong said is as good as nothing.

Bingling and I all expressed our understanding of this. After all, some wealthy people really like to keep a low profile, or they have some unspeakable secrets that make it inconvenient for them to reveal their nationality.

As for this girl jumping around the world in a bear suit, my first impression of her is that she looks like Fujiyoshi from Sangoku in "Beyblade"... I mean her personality and preferences.

Teng Ji is also a rich second-generation. His family’s money is enough to buy out the entire four-wheel drive car competition organizer, but he is very approachable and works with ordinary people to modify four-wheel drive cars and use the same accessories fairly to participate in the competition. I feel that Xiongxiong is this type of nouveau riche.

And that guy also likes to wear various doll costumes to participate in the competition.

"I'm so envious of Xiong Xiong... I knew she was extraordinary from the group chat."

After Xiongxiong left, college student Bing Ling looked at the entrance of the coffee shop with a somewhat distracted look in her eyes: "Look at what she usually talks about in the group, Antarctic travel, international situation, wow, she is obviously someone from the upper class, and such a person is actually in the same group with us... I really can't believe it, oh, in the end she just came to see us and left, it seems that she is indeed not from the same circle."

"You envy her, but maybe others also envy ordinary people like you."

The physics duck next to him was very calm: "This is called the siege effect."

After a brief contact and chat, I learned a lot more about Physics Duck and Bing Ling.

First up is Bing Ling. His real name is Zhong Lezhou, and he is currently attending university in a city more than 200 kilometers away from Shenbin City. The school is an ordinary undergraduate college, and he is studying a minor language. He is tall and thin, his face is not very handsome but certainly not ugly, his voice is a very standard young man's voice, and his parents are both working class... In a word, he is an ordinary male college student, without any obvious advantages or specialties, nor any major bad habits or physical disabilities.

There are many college students like Bing Ling in major universities. They attend classes during the day, read novels at night, and play games with their good friends.

As for the physics student Duck, his family background is relatively better off. His real name is Kuang Jinshuo. His father runs a chain of supermarkets in a small city and also owns two large self-built houses in the county town. After graduation, Duck took over his father's supermarket, and his parents returned to the county town to retire. He lives in one of the self-built houses and rents out the other. He just waits for the rent every month, and the rest of the time he either plays cards, mahjong, or watches short videos.

As for Cai Jingtong and "Maple", I originally thought that Maple was really called this name like Elodie, but in fact, it is not. "Maple"'s real name is Zhou Lulu, and she and Tongtong are students of Shenhama Academy.

I have some knowledge about this Kamishima College. It is a technical college. Its predecessor should be called "Kamihama Nagawa University". Later, for some reason, it was changed to Kamishima College. Strictly speaking, it is not in Kamishima City. Its location... In short, it is very remote. It is a long way away from the city. When I was in college, my club had a social gathering with this school. I ran a long way and was very impressed.

“How come when I woke up… people were already planting trees outside.”

At three or four o'clock, Elodie came down from the second floor yawning. She looked at the excavator and tree planters outside the coffee shop with a confused look on her face: "Or is it a coconut tree?"

“I think this place can be transformed into a seaside garden in the future.”

Outside the coffee shop, Ouyang Xue was sweating under the sun. She looked at the workers working hard in front of her and said in a hoarse voice, "Dig a small swimming pool here, and a fountain over there... Um, cough cough."

Noticing something was wrong, I quickly trotted over from the shadow under the eaves of the mushroom house: "Sister Ouyang, your cold..."

"I feel a little dizzy. Maybe it's because the sun is too strong..."

When Ouyang Xue spoke, she looked weak and her lips were pale. "Now... what time is it now?"

"Three fifty."

I took out my phone from my skirt and glanced at the time: "Sister Ouyang, you have to go back and rest. You are in this state..."

"No, it will be the peak meal time soon. I...I can't do it at this time..."

Ouyang Xue turned around and seemed to want to go into the house.

The next second, her feet staggered and her body softened.

"call out--"

In a flash, Yin Xiamo rushed up from the coffee shop and hugged Ouyang Xue firmly.

"Sister Ouyang?"

"Store manager!"

Elodie and I walked quickly forward and looked at Ouyang Xue in Yin Xiamo's arms.

"Fainted."

Yin Xiamo looked at me and said, "Quick, call 120."

"..."

……

[Last night, QQ was hacked on a large scale. I watched the group all night and slept in a daze during the day. In the afternoon, the power supply of my computer seemed to have burned out and I couldn’t turn it on. I carried the computer case to show it to others in the hot weather. The Internet cafes around me also closed down... I only fixed it when it was almost time for dinner. QAQ I still feel dizzy, so the number of words in today’s update is a little less. I will make up for it in the next few days. Qwq Sorry...]

No. 127 The stopped hourglass will continue to flow if it is turned upside down

"Hello, this is the 120 emergency center. How can I help you?"

"My friend suddenly fainted over here. She had a persistent cold and a low-grade fever. She was just talking to us. I don't know if it was because of the hot sun or a cold. Now she...she's breathing is a little rapid and she's talking nonsense."

"We have roughly understood your situation. Do you need an ambulance?"

"Yes."

"Please let me know the specific address. Also, the weather is hot, if conditions permit, please move the patient indoors as much as possible..."

"..."

While Yin Xiamo and I were moving Ouyang Xue under the eaves of the Mushroom House, I called 120 and told them the address of the coffee shop.

"No...I'm fine...I..."

"I can't fall asleep at this time..."

When Ouyang Xue was carried back, even though she was unconscious, the older sister was still talking in a daze, with a frown on her face and a worried look on her face.

I tried touching her forehead.

"It must be forty degrees."

Generally speaking, if you encounter a situation like someone fainting outside, it is best not to move the patient without understanding the situation to prevent secondary trauma.

However, the weather in May was very hot, and three or four o'clock in the afternoon was the hottest time of the summer. The floor outside the coffee shop felt very hot even when I was wearing maid shoes. I definitely couldn't let Ouyang Xue lie directly on the ground in such a temperature.

So Yin Xiamo and I carried the person back together, and let Ouyang Xue rest under the eaves of the mushroom house for a while.

"Is she really okay? Momo, tell me the truth."

After calling the emergency number, I looked at Ouyang Xue who was breathing rapidly on the ground, and then turned to Yin Xiamo beside me.

Although I don’t quite understand the magic of the other world, and I don’t know what the specific rules of the “God of Death” are in relation to the current world, I guess Yin Xiamo should be able to know the specific circumstances of a person’s life and death.

For example, life expectancy, or health status.

Based on past experience, my only "superpower" is that I can see the state of dying people and see the god of death harvesting souls from these people.

As for where the so-called soul has gone, and whether there is any way to save it after the god of death appears, I have no idea.

What I least want to happen now is the plot like in those melodramatic novels, where Yin Xiamo is the god of death and I'm a good friend, but in order not to break the "rules", she takes away the people around her from my sight again and again.

I hate this.

"It really doesn't matter."

Under the somewhat stuffy eaves, Yin Xiamo rarely put on a serious expression when facing my question: "Nuo'er, I have experienced the pain of losing a loved one, so... you have to believe that I will not joke about this kind of thing. Ouyang Xue is fine, she just overdrawn her body, plus the high fever, she can't bear it anymore."

"what happens?"

Soon, Bing Lingtong and the others in the coffee shop also noticed something was wrong. Even Lu Xinjian, who had been playing with his daughter in the cat living area, ran out and asked, "What's wrong with her?"

"It is suspected to be heat stroke or coma caused by high fever."

I gave the crowd a “don’t worry” look: “I’ve called an ambulance.”

"Don't call... an ambulance... You can't call..."

Ouyang Xue, who had her eyes tightly closed under the eaves, seemed to still retain a trace of consciousness. She said in a daze: "Nuo'er, you... the new store opens... on the first day... we can't..."

"Never mind the opening."

I quickly grabbed Ouyang Xue's hand and said, "You really need to take a rest."
